Beating the experts

This week's Sports Illustrated points out that their NFL expert Paul "Dr. Z" Zimmerman, in his picks of the results of NFL games this season, after going 1-1 on the conference finals, has a .602 winning percentage.

In my picks of the results of NFL games this season, I went 2-0 on the conference finals, and I have a .615 winning percentage.

Now, granted, these numbers aren't strictly comparable because I've been picking a winner for every game, which Dr. Z doesn't do. Also, he has to write an article every week in which he explains why he's making the picks he's making, while I can come up with reasons like "because they will be blinded by the ugliness of the Seahawks' uniforms."

Dr. Z's Super Bowl pick: Raiders 24, Bucs 22. My Super Bowl pick: Bucs 21, Raiders 14.
